This review is for Roksalt Gourmet Fish & Chippery, Bright VIC

verified email - 07 Oct 2014

This shop is a little away from the main food area, but it's worth taking one extra minute to walk around the corner to find it. The food was well above average, nicely cooked and presented in a box, and tasted great.

Approximate cost: $11

This review is for Chemist Discount Centre, Endeavour Hills VIC

This local pharmacy provides great value, helpful and knowledgeable staff, and excellent service. They have low prices, but if you find it cheaper somewhere else, they are happy to match other pharmacy's prices on prescription and non-prescription items, other pharmacy items, and even advertised specials. They have an excellent product range, and even their own brand of popular items at even lower prices, with more products continually being added. And they also provide a free prescription pick-up and delivery service in the local area if for any reason you can't get to the pharmacy.
I am happy to recommend them for personal service and great prices, give them a try.

This review is for Travelodge, Darwin NT

verified email - 05 Mar 2013

I have stayed at Mirambeena a number of times, and have enjoyed my stay on each occasion. It's a comfortable and relaxed place, and like many of the places in Darwin, it has a laid back feel about it. It's centrally located, so just about everything is within walking distance.
The standard of rooms varies significantly, so there should be something to fit most budgets. The prices are on par with other places of similar standard in Darwin, but are a lot higher (especially in the dry season) than other other state capital cities. The service has varied from OK to excellent, the restaurant food has always been good, but to me, the food and drink prices are a bit on the expensive side.

This review is for Wombat Hills Cottages, Barwite VIC

verified email - 05 Mar 2013

Wombat Hills Cottages are an idyllic and tranquil place for a romantic getaway, or to simply relax and forget about the stress of modern life.
We stayed in Snowgum cottage, and found it to be everything we could have expected. The mountain views are spectacular, and the cottage had many thoughtful touches and everything that we could possibly need. The owners, Helen and Norm also live on the property, and were extremely helpful and friendly, and offered to help us if we needed directions or advice, but were also happy to give us our privacy.

This review is for AstroVac Ducted Vacuum Warehouse, Box Hill VIC

verified email - 29 Dec 2012

I purchased a ducted vacuum system from AstroVac some years ago, and recently the suction dropped significantly.
I rang AstroVac for advice and the guy I spoke with was extremely helpful. He took the time to clearly explain three possible solutions that I could try to fix the problem myself to save the cost of a service call. He also said that if I was unsuccessful to call back and he would send someone around to fix it.
This reminded me that when I was looking to purchase the ducted vacuum system, the main reason that we purchased from AstroVac was the great price, and the knowledge and advice of their staff, which gave me the confidence to purchase the components and install the whole system myself.
The sort of service I received again this time is becoming increasingly rare, these days when you need advice, you usually speak to someone with very little knowledge who only wants to book a service call for you.
AstroVac were happy to provide free advice, and only as a last resort would send a serviceman.
And thanks to the advice I was given, I was able to fix it myself with the first of the three suggested solutions.
Outstanding service and value!

This review is for Dr J H & D Ong Dental Surgery, Mulgrave VIC

verified email - 28 Dec 2012

I have recently seen Dr Daphne Ong on a couple of occasions, and I have been impressed with her professional manner and the quality of her work. She clearly and simply explains the options available, and what she is about to do during treatment.
The fees are very reasonable, and health fund rebates can be claimed at the time of payment to reduce or eliminate out of pocket costs.
She is by far the best dentist I have been to, and I am happy to recommend her services.

This review is for Schwarze Seafoods, Dandenong VIC

verified email - 27 Dec 2012

Schwarze Seafoods have a great variety of quality fresh seafood. They have very good prices and are an excellent option for people who live or shop locally who don't have the time or want to save the inconvenience and cost of travelling to the city markets.
They have been in business for many years, I have never seen them advertise, they rely on recommendations and word of mouth, so they must be doing something right.

This review is for Johnny Boys Pizza, Endeavour Hills VIC

verified email - 17 Dec 2012

I have been getting pizza and pasta at Johnny Boys for many years. On numerous occasions, visiting friends and family have commented on how good their food is when we've had Johnny Boys.
They make great food, and are always generous with the pizza toppings, and serving sizes. They are great value too, try asking for extra toppings at other pizza places, and see how much they charge you; at Johnny Boys, they're free! One of their small pizzas is about the same size as a "large" at one of the well known international pizza chains, and they taste a lot better too.
Very occasionally on busy nights the service is not perfect, but it's not because they don't try, it's because they're human.
Highly recommended to everyone.

Approximate cost: $6 - $18

This review is for The Terrace Fish And Chips, Endeavour Hills VIC

verified email - 11 Dec 2012

I have bought food here regularly over the last 18 months, and I have never had a problem with the quality. The burgers are great, fish is cooked perfectly, and the chips are always crispy. Even after a change of ownership a few months ago, the quality of the food is still excellent.
If you're a local, or just visiting in the area, and looking for a good fish and chip shop, give them a try. I have never been disappointed even once.

Approximate cost: $5-$8
